Hillary Clinton has proven to be capable by winning very huge number of votes in a state. California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Washington and New Jersey represent the best of American values!
"California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Washington and New Jersey represent the best of American values!"
Well, I don't know about that. I have no bad impression of Illinois (except that Chicago is in it). Mass. is a cute state, yes, I would agree on this one. New Jersey...does anyone actually live there who doesn't work in NYC? New York...political corruption capital of the U.S. Washington...it always rains, they smoke pot...because it always rains. Maryland...isn't that the state where financial corporations (esp. insurance co's.) aren't taxed? Or is that Ct.?
If one want to talk about the "best of American values" I'd look to the states of Kansas, Missouri, Idaho, Nebraska...no state that's on a coastline...salt water seems to make people loony.
There are 56 contests in total (50 states + DC + 3 districts of Nebraska and 2 districts of Maine)
Trump 34 vs 22 Clinton
Don't confuse people with facts. While I found your original post interesting trivia, everyone else is too sensitive to not think you're making an anti-Trump statement. Don't you know by now that only Trump supporters are allowed to mention Hillary?
India has long been the largest democracy in terms of voter turnout with Indonesia being 2nd (although the U.S. has larger population than Indonesia). But in this election, the U.S. has surpassed Indonesia in total number of voters voting. Let's take a look at the statistics:
2012 U.S. Election : 129,085,409 votes
2014 (most recent) election in Indonesia : 133,574,277 votes
2016 U.S. Election : 136,280,732 votes and counting
In addition to # votes, one should list participation rate so the populations can be compared.
There are now 51 states? When did *that* happen? What's the 51st state?
I was including Washington DC in the election since they have several EC votes. I believe there may actually be a few others if you count the territories.

Have you not noticed his multiple daily threads (they could also be described as meltdowns) concerning Clinton's loss?
It has nothing to do with who can mention anyone but more just Daywalk fatigue.
